Survey Database

Survey Database hosted in a Django server.

Prerequisites

Before you can run the project, you need to set up a Google Maps JavaScript API key. Follow these steps to obtain an API key:

1. Go to the Google Cloud Console and create a new project.
2. Enable the Google Maps JavaScript API for your project.
3. Create a new API key for your project.
4. Copy the API key.

Another required dependency is OSGeo4W, download available at: OSGeo4W

Setting up the Environment

To set up the environment for the project, follow these steps:

1. Create a new file named .env in the root directory of the project.
2. Add the following line to the .env file, replacing YOUR_API_KEY with your Google Maps JavaScript API key: GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY

This will set the GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY environment variable to your API key.

Getting Started

To get started with the project, follow these steps:

1. Install the project requirements by running the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Run the following command to create the database file:

python manage.py migrate

This will create a new SQLite database file named db.sqlite3 in your project's root directory.

3. Run the server by running the following command:

python manage.py runserver

This will start the development server at http://localhost:8000/.

That's it! You should now be able to view the project in your web browser by navigating to http://localhost:8000/.
